Can't look past New Mexico State now...

DOUBLE BUMP ogredawg. While I have problems with the staff, I don't think Richt would cover this up, nor McGarity. This kind of cover-up would come back to do much more harm to our university than the acts of the "children" involved.

wlayton.. I know they are grasping at straws, but I can darn sure wish we wouldn't have been the ones
handing them those straws. Straws or not, valid or not, we gave them a pleasant distraction from
their own issues is all I am saying.

As far as IC as a running back, who will know his name 10 years from now. Herschel Walker is still remembered . . . why . . . . because he was a MAN OF PRINCIPLE and also true to UGA.

Sorry Buc but Herschel is remembered for winning a Heisman trophy and the only NC for UGA in the last 30 years in addition to arguably being the best athlete to ever come out of the southeast. This is a man who recently on ESPN said "I wanted to quit football and join the military so I could KILL people". Also got a lot of ink at the age of 48 for saying he wanted to fight Steve Spurrier.

A lot of the criticism heaped on IC now are from the sames ones who were ecstatic when he signed last February. Everyone knew where he was from and what he was about but didn't see a single post saying "hold on a minute, we shouldn't sign this guy".[/quote]

Interesting tid bits about HW. Did not see in your post any of the good things that Herschel did outside of football, and there were many. Married a young lady that lives just across the river from me in Cocoa Beach. There is a long list of positives about Herschel other than Heisman and NC.

Beg to differ with you on everyone knowing where IC was from and what he was about. Explain that to me in greater detail, not generalities. Not sure I understand the point you are trying to make.

I would pose this question to you . . . If you knew that IC was going to show himself as he has done time wise in approximately one-half of the schedule, would you have been as gung-ho then.

HW quietly donates a lot of scholarship money to UGA.

Yeah, I know Wart, and agree with ya......guess I don't give a "rat's" what UF fans say or think. Remember I live in Jax.

averagedawg I am aware of that. Also saved a couple of folks from serious harm in Athens out jogging one morning.

Herschel Walker suffers from DID, has to do with multiple personalities. Some may remember Sally Fields role some years back in Sybil. Referring to HW's personality disorders somehow does not register with me when talking about 3 football players that put themselves above the team. Just my opinion.
